and with the help of some old pros at the firing range, I got it cited in with the scope that came with it. No issues other than the bolt being a bit stiff upon opening and closing it. I can only assume that in time that will loosen up a bit. The trigger is quite a bit heavy, so I went ahead and ordered a softer trigger from "Rifle Basics". Should be receiving it in a few days and I will post my findings once I install it and use it.
